Summary edit

Description Lot 1895-13: “A Poster Comes to Life”. This photograph, one is series, shows Sergeant French L. Vineyard, USA; George Woolslayer, welder; and Aviation Radio Chief John Marshall Evans, USN, at the Allegheny-Ludlum Steel Mill, Brackenridge, Pennsylvania, during the process of the creation of a WWII poster that they posed for. Note Chief Evans wore an E-6 and below uniform due to the poster image. Shown: It takes a heap o’ treatin’ to make a ship’s hull out of a scrap metal. Soldier, welder, and sailor watch this giant four-high machine at the mill which rolls bloomed ingots into sheet steel. Thanks to welder, George Woolslayer’s, explanations of the steel-making processes, Sergeant Vineyard and Chief Evans are getting a liberal education in the fine art of production for war.
